Midsurface extraction and Creation of 1D elements masses for the given igs CAD model

Objective: Create 1D elements adhereing to the dof & cross-section conditions.

Procedure:

Import the given .igs CAD model using import option.
Extract midsurface from the \'Geom\' option. Make any changes if necessary to the extraction parameters.
Delete the unwanted cad surfaces, elements, lines, etc.
Create the required different properties.
Assign the respective properties to the mid surface extracted.
Create RBE2, RBE3 & Spring elements at the specified nodes. Care to be taken to assign dofs as specified for different nodes, using 1D > (Rigids) / (RBE3) / Springs.
Create bar, beam & rod cross sections with given dimensions in 1D > Hyperbeam.
Create the bar, beam & rod elements using 1D > (Bars) / (Rods).
Assign the cross sections to repective bar/beam/rod elements.
Create mass @ specified nodes with mag(10).
Join the parallel brackets with spring elements from 1D > Springs.
Change the 1D representation and 2D representation to get a good graphical model.

Conclusion:

The model is ready as per the given criteria.

Thanks for the time.
